“Star Wars: Visions: Volume 2” Trailer Released During Star Wars Celebration
During the final day of the Star Wars Celebration event in London, England, Lucasfilm revealed the first trailer for “Star Wars: Visions” Volume 2, which is going to be coming to Disney+ on Star Wars Day, aka May 4th 2023.
“Star Wars: Visions: Volume 2” is the follow-up to the critically acclaimed debut season of the animated anthology series. True to the spirit of the show, Volume 2 will feature nine new shorts from nine studios from across the globe, all with their own unique take on the saga.
This new trailer is filled with quick cuts between the shorts, showcasing the diverse styles of each. There’s the colorful and intense “Sith,” which opens the trailer with a lightsaber battle; the delightful stop motion and humor of “I Am Your Mother”; and a powerful moment from 2D-animated “In the Stars” by Punkrobot, in which a girl stands her ground against a TIE fighter.

A new poster for the series was also released, showcasing characters from each short emerging from a stylized “2,” illustrating the wide-ranging stories, tones, and styles of every Volume 2 production. A poster was also given out to attendees of the panel.
